Additional debug info: gstbasesrc.c(2865): gst_base_src_loop (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstFileSrc:filesrc0: streaming task paused, reason error (-5) ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to preroll.

My aim is to encode the video yes. Based on your answer I tried the following command line: gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=/mnt/sdcard/testGSTPipelines/IRSeq_BUTIV_Davis1A_420_short.yuv blocksize=491520 ! \ video/x-raw,format=i420,width=640,height=512,framerate=25/1 \ ! video/x-h264 ! avimux ! queue ! filesink location=test.avi </div> </div> <div> </div> <div> The element 'video/x-raw,format=i420,width=640,height=512,framerate=25/1' and the element 'video/x-h264' are cap specifications or cap filters. They DO NOT change/encode/decode any data at all. You don't get encoded H.264 video by declaring that it is by some magical and mysterious way. You need to add an encoder element. Such element could be the x264enc element. </div> <blockquote style="border:none;border-left:solid #cccccc 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in"> <div> <div> But I still get the same error.

You have not included any encoder element at all in your pipeline. I'd suggest you include one. </div> <div> Best Peter </div> </div> </div> </div></div></div> </div> </div> _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel</a> </blockquote></div> </div>
